    no. needs the BS marks and some other safety jibber jabber, you can however use a leather cap if it is actually a vintage motorcycle hat... also a turban is legal tender in the strange currency of motorcycle safety gear.... and a helicoptor flight helmet....

    My local mechanic uses a skydiving helmet, it looks wicked but I can't see it protecting him much! :confused:
